Setting border to overflown image in CSS - css

Question

Here is an example: http://jsfiddle.net/7zhLm/5/
The image inside is larger than the div supports.
Therefore it is cropping the rest (overflow-x: hidden).
I am trying to create a white border around the image, but it doesn't seem to work.
After checking what's going on there with dev tool I saw that the lower part overlays the white border.
How to I fix that?

Answer 1

I see you're using both overflow-x and overflow-y. You can just use overflow:hidden; as it works on any browser while -x and -y are not supported by older ones.
Anyway, to avoid it you can add another <div>. Check the live demo, and here is the updated code:
<div id="fixed_event_1" class="splashTabLogout" >
<div>
<img src="http://www.twospy.com/galleriffic/demo/Sample%202.jpg" width="300" />
</div>
</div>
.splashTabLogout {
width: 300px;
height: 100px;
cursor: pointer;
background: #fff;
padding: 10px;
/* border-radius and box-shadow stuff */
}
.splashTabLogout > div {
max-width:100%;
max-height:100%;
overflow:hidden;
}

JSFiddle
You tried to set a border with a padding. Change it to a 10px white border.

Answer 3

The HTML you have is fine. It's semantic, simple -- don't change it. Change the details about it, and fix the CSS, and you'll be rockin': http://jsfiddle.net/7zhLm/9/
CSS
.splashTabLogout {
border: white solid 10px;
border-radius: 3px;
box-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,.22) 0 2px 6px;
overflow: hidden;
}
.splashTabLogout img { width:300px }
HTML
<div id="fixed_event_1" class="splashTabLogout" >
<img src="your-pic.jpg" />
</div>
Note: Including width/height inside an img tag is valid. Period. In a gallery of images, or anywhere else, where you may have multiple images with the same dimensions, it's often easier, and less code to declare the width/height from the CSS file. FYI
